A chord is drawn inside a circle, such that the length of the chord is equal to the radius of the circle. Now, two circles are drawn, one on each side of the chord, each touching the chord at its midpoint and the original circle. Let k be the ratio of the areas of the bigger inscribed circle and the smaller inscribed circle, then k equals

Points $P$, $Q$, $R$, and $S$ are taken on sides $AB$, $BC$, $CD$, and $DA$ of square $ABCD$ respectively, so that $\frac{AP}{PB} = \frac{BQ}{QC} = \frac{CR}{RD} = \frac{DS}{SA} = \frac{1}{n}$. Then the ratio of the area of $PQRS$ to the area of $ABCD$ is

On a circular path of radius 6 m a boy starts from a point $A$ on the circumference and walks along a chord $AB$ of length 3 m. He then walks along another chord $BC$ of length 2 m to reach point $C$. The point $B$ lies on the minor arc $AC$. The distance between point $C$ from point $A$ is

A die is thrown three times and the sum of the three numbers is found to be 15. The probability that the first throw was a four is

In a given village there are only three sizes of families: families with 2 members, families with 4 members and families with 6 members. The proportion of families with 2, 4 and 6 members are roughly equal. A poll is conducted in this village wherein a person is chosen at random and asked about his/her family size. The average family size computed by sampling 1000 such persons from the village would be closest to
